I watch the old episodes on daily basis,” said an excited fan. “So, so pumped for this. Huge part of my childhood finally coming back. Excited for a tv show after a long time 🥰 will miss the comic relief Dinesh sir provided throughout the show with his cute and silly antics though,” said another. “Itni khushi mujhe aaj tak nahi hui. 😭😭😭😭 (Only CID can fix me rn),” was one more happy fan’s comment.
Others were hopeful that the new rendition would finally tie up a few loose threads. “Fingers crossed hope everything works fine and abhi to wo Barboza waala ‘The Eye’ case khatam bhi karna hai 👁️👁️,” said a fan. In response, another netizen commented, “Broooo, was thinking the same!!!!! That story stopping halfway was like a scar every CID fan would carry to their grave….. I just hope somehow they integrate and complete that story…. I just can’t bear the fact that we will NEVER EVER come to know what happened in that series…(main ro rha hun). 6 saal se uss gham ka bojh leke jee rha hun.”
